Talk:Manhattan/East Village

Every time I try to edit anything in this article today, I get an "internal error." Someone should find out what the problem is, because there's no good reason for it. Meanwhile, I can't do anything here.

Hi! It doesn't look like it's an error. The url www.cbgb\.com is getting blocked by the blacklist. Please add cbgb\.com to the Wikitravel:Local_spam_whitelist with a comment on the discussion page and it should work fine! There's no need to remove the link later... HTH!

Majnoona, that's a great idea except for the fact that it's been tried before and didn't work. See the "Talk" page of the spam whitelist, linked above. So far, the workaround described above is the only effective way to edit this article without permanently deleting the link to CBGB's website or putting gb\.com permanently in the spam whitelist. What is gb\.com, anyway?

To the user who recommends Gandhi: No offense, but I think it's not very good at all, nor do I think there's anything very unusual about its menu. However, I won't delete the entry purely based on my opinion, so I'm just noting an objection here. The best Indian restaurant on that block is almost definitely Banjara, on the corner of 6th and 1st, and the best Indian restaurant in the neighborhood, in my not-so-humble opinion, is Madras Cafe. Most of the rest of the Indian places around here upset my stomach.

It appears the commentary is a direct quote from an external sources (which I can not confirm because I can't find that info on the other site). But if it is a quote I believe that is against wikitravel guidelines? Carson 18:47, 21 May 2008 (EDT)
